  • Abstract
    In this letter, analytical models to estimate the capacity of log-normal channels are presented for three adaptive transmission schemes: (i) optimal simultaneous power and rate adaptation, (ii) optimal rate adaptation with constant transmit power, and (iii) truncated channel inversion with fixed rate. Closed-form approximations for capacity under these adaptive transmission schemes are derived. Simulation results confirm the accuracy of the proposed analytical models.
